This distillery is tucked in the back of the countryside just behind the beautiful ocean, the natural beauty is breathtaking, wild horses roam the hills as well as many other animals. The service was decent and the rum was tasty!

Beautiful spot to land after a full day of swimming and snorkeling. Didn’t eat this time, but the food looked top notch. Tucked away in the cut, quiet, low-key, very picture/movie-esque. Dogs roaming around, good energy, no rush. One of those places you don’t force…you just end up there, and it feels right. Next time, I’m sitting down and eating for sure

Every time we come to Vieques, this is an absolute must. The bartender Carlos has been mixing our drinks for the last few years and they are consistently the best. Ivan, the owner, is very welcoming and remembers us every time we show up. Five stars! Highly recommend!

Love the fish burger, but the fries are not good. Not crispy at all.

Wow, this was an unexpected day in a glorious way. After making our way to Punta Arenas on its very rough road for a great day snorkeling, we were ready for a little adult beverage to settle our stomachs. While posted as a rum distillary, they have a full bar menu replete with some funky drinks. I opted for the Chupi, a combo of rum, vodka, orange, bitters, lime and rosemary syrup. While a little sweet on first taste, it mellowed into a fantastic and strong pour. One of our group did the 4 rum flight, which he enjoyed, while the rest sampled other delicious drinks. We had some free range pups to keep us company and beg for some scraps, but not in an onerous way. Super sweet. The most unexpected piece was the food! While a limited menu, the fish dishes were spectacular. The breading on the fish and chips, fish taco, and fish sandwich was brilliant with the fish holding up beautifully. I don’t know where else they cook on the island, since the distillary is just a weekend gig, but it was flat out the tastiest (and cheapest) meal of the week. Run, don’t walk.
